My husband is extremely stoic. Unlike me. As a physician, he knows bad things happen and he often has to deliver bad, heart breaking news to patients. I asked him, given his aptitude for not showing emotion, how he would react if he had left one of our children in a hot car.
He said that he would never have been able to live with himself and the devastation would have been so great, he too, like Linda7NJ's husband, would have never even asked for bond. He said that no matter what the State could do to him, it would be less punishment than what he deserved.
I have been married for 27 years. I have never heard my husband say anything close to this. Ever. He saw bits and pieces about this case on the TVs in his office. He had no words for RH....
